#WinchesterMA - Winchester #RepairCafe
Saturday, August 29th
Appointments from 9am - 12:00pm
First Congregational Church
21 Church St.
Winchester, MA"There may be a long wait,so it is always better to make an appointment to be seen.
Please bring us your unwanted TV remote controls as we can repurpose them and give them a new life.
If you have repair skills and love a challenge, join our team of volunteer #menders and #mentors.
- The mission of Repair Café is for experienced menders to share their knowledge while demonstrating repairs, so our clients leave feeling empowered to try repairing themselves. We aim to spread the word that repairing and renovating can be FUN!
- Given the increased interest in Repair Café, appointments are limited to helping the client within the allotted 1/2 hour appointment time. Repairs and/or mending that require more time will need to be finished by the client.Please check the volunteer skills we can offer at this Repair Cafe and choose the one that matches the item you need to repair most closely. Each volunteer will show you how to repair your item, using their tools. You will learn the skills to finish repairing your object at home if we run out of time.
It would help us if you can indicate the type of repair you are bringing in, so we can be more prepared. For example, 'torn seam in red dress' then we can have red thread available. 'Old, faded jeans needing a patch' so we can have the right color patch handy.
Please remember:
- One person per repair.
- Each time slot is 30 minutes long, starting at 9:00 am until 12:00 pm. Up to two repair slots can be made per person.
- We will do our best to repair your item but sometimes it may not be fixable.
- Any spare parts (batteries, etc) will need to be provided by you. You can buy spare parts at Fells Hardware on Main Street.Sign-up for appointments recommended."

The Senate Chair of the Massachusetts Joint Committee on the Judiciary is Lydia Edwards, who represents Third Suffolk (#Revere, #Winthrop, and parts of #Boston).
The House Chair is Michael Day, who represents 31st Middlesex (#Stoneham and parts of #Winchester.
If you know anyone in those districts who cares about electronic privacy and the 4th amendment, it'd especially valuable to have them on board.
